tstyl005800_01_m.jpgAnother day, another plot to blow airplanes out of the sky. That’s why we had such a nice time looking at these charming walking Nintendo figurines. Sure, they use a wired controller – but it’s the retro Famicom controller! – and they cost $30, but what better way to while away the hours between terror alerts than by moving Toad and Fire Mario back and forth, back and forth. Sweet release.
